I might start drinking again

Post by wmthor »

Rice University students are trying to develop beer that could fight cancer, heart disease and diabetes. It started, as so many great ideas do, as a joke.

"But then we found that we'd be able to do it," said Thomas Segall-Shapiro, 20, a junior biochemistry and bioengineering major at Rice. "That's when we got sold on the idea."

I'll drink to that.
Too bad current brews don't have the same health benefits, if they did, I'd be a medical marvel.

I figured I should at least wait until noon before posting in this thread.
Why shouldn't beer cure cancer? It already makes me funnier, more philosophical and better looking.
